Extract

It has been shown that alterations in the hydrogen-ion concentration of milk result in differences in the numbers of bacteria which survive the process of heating at 145° F. for 30 min. As the pH decreases the number of bacteria surviving also decreases. The possible bearings of these findings on various processes are discussed.
